Pool Pipe Leak Locating in New Jersey By Pool Patcher®

When your pool begins losing water and the source isn’t visible, the cause is often a hidden underground leak in your plumbing lines. Pool Patcher® specializes in pinpointing these hidden breaks with accurate, non-invasive pipe leak locating.

Serving Monmouth, Ocean, Middlesex, and Mercer Counties, our expert team uses advanced electronic tools, precision pressure testing, and years of local experience to find what others can’t.

We don’t guess — we trace, test, and confirm every leak before any digging or repair is started. By identifying the exact depth and position of broken pool pipes, we help homeowners avoid unnecessary excavation and costly trial-and-error repairs.

Pinpoint Accuracy for Hidden Pool Pipe Leaks

Pool Patcher® is New Jersey’s trusted name in underground pipe leak locating. Our specialized tools allow us to identify leaks beneath patios, decks, and landscaped areas with unmatched precision.

Most pool plumbing runs one to five feet below ground, often twisting under concrete, spas, or steps—places where traditional methods fail. Our advanced technology lets us map those pipes electronically and isolate even the smallest pressure loss.

Every system is different, but whether your pool has PVC return lines, skimmer suction pipes, main drains, or attached spa plumbing, our diagnostics can follow the entire path from the equipment pad to the pool itself. If the leak is in your plumbing instead of the pool structure, we’ll find it quickly and mark the exact location for minimal disruption.

Our Pool Pipe Leak Locating Process

💠Pressure Testing Each Line

We begin by isolating and pressure-testing all accessible lines—skimmers, returns, main drains, and spas. This determines whether the water loss is in the plumbing or in the pool itself.

💠Electronic Pipe Tracing

Once a leak is confirmed, we send an electronic signal through the affected pipe. This allows us to trace the exact path underground and measure the pipe’s depth, even beneath patios or walkways.

💠Acoustic Leak Detection

Using advanced listening equipment, we follow the sound of escaping water to locate the precise spot where the line has failed.

💠Mapping and Marking the Leak

The location is marked clearly on the surface, with depth measurements noted. This makes the repair faster, cleaner, and less expensive for you or your chosen repair company.

Our process combines technology, accuracy, and experience—ensuring that your repair is targeted, efficient, and permanent.

Common Underground Pool Pipe Issues We Locate

✅Leaking Pipes

Small cracks or holes can cause steady water loss, higher chemical usage, and imbalanced water levels.

✅Collapsed Pipes

Soil shifting or freeze-thaw cycles can crush underground plumbing, stopping circulation entirely.

✅Clogged Lines

Sand, debris, or collapsed liner material can obstruct flow, straining pumps and filtration systems.

✅Corroded Fittings

Metal joints or older plumbing can develop corrosion leaks over time.

Regardless of the problem, Pool Patcher® combines pressure testing and electronic leak detection to confirm the issue before any digging begins. You’ll receive clear explanations, no guesswork, and a permanent solution plan.

How Pipe Leak Locating Saves You Money

Underground leaks can waste hundreds of gallons of water daily—driving up water bills, damaging patios, and softening soil beneath your pool deck.

By choosing Pool Patcher®, you’ll reduce water waste, avoid unnecessary excavation, and prevent structural damage. Our pinpoint accuracy means smaller repair areas, less mess, and faster turnaround time.

When your pool’s water level keeps dropping or your equipment loses prime, professional pipe leak locating is the best investment you can make before starting repairs.

POOL PIPE LOCATING: OUR SPECIALTY

At Pool Patcher, we specialize in precisely locating underground pool pipes, whether they’re experiencing leaks, clogs, or collapses. Using the latest high-tech electronics and specialized equipment, we ensure no pipe issue goes undetected.

Pool pipes can vary greatly in depth, with some buried as shallow as 1 foot and others as deep as 5 feet. Regardless of how deep or complex your pipe system is, our technology and expertise allow us to accurately detect and mark problem areas, enabling targeted repairs that save time and money.

We understand that every pool is unique, and every leak presents its own set of challenges. That’s why we rely on specialized equipment that allows us to accurately detect leaks, clogs, and collapsed pipes in even the most hard-to-reach areas.

It’s important to note that not all underground pipe systems are the same. Some may be only 1 foot underground, while others may be buried as deep as 5 feet. Regardless of the depth, however, we have the expertise and technology necessary to locate exactly where these pipes remain hidden underground and out of sight.
